A portrait of the old Hoover and new "Hoover machines

with a few scattered tiny holes

dated 1883-84--almost all the pages were already loose

19th Century Thick, Scallop Edged Shaving Mirror in Original Tin and Leather Frame little planters Gray (John Edward GrayI found one other scallop edged antique mirror held in place just by four tabs along the sides of black painted tin frame just like this one that was described as Civil War era and was accompanied by original shaving kit. I am not certain if that is correct, but it is definitely an old one, the glass very thick and the frame well worn, all full of character and aura. With a much darkened leather back and piece of old striped string for hanging. Nice.
